    It's a bit slow and sometimes the remote loses sync. But for the cost I can't complain. I bought a second one knowing what I knew before.

    This device is a good choice for cord cutters, it performs as expected, the wireless interface is a little laggy, but a good device as a whole.

    Want to turn your dumb old TV into a Smart TV without shelling over a ton of cash for a whole new set? Well if your TV has an HDMI input then this device is for you! Very easy to set up and gives you a ton of video services to enjoy! (please keep in mind you will need subscriptions to some of the services, like Netflix and Hulu thought I think they offer free trials for both). I bought this for my parents as a gift and they love it and enjoy the extended features it gives their TV buy being able to watch Netflix, Hulu and Amazon movies as well as a plethora of other services. Definitely recommended!

    Will not fit all TV's. The HDMI port on the tv would not allow the Roku stick to plug in the slot due to the clearance of the back of the tv. So I purchased a extension cable only to find out the Roku Stick would not load all the way during setup. Installed the stick on another TV and it worked. So I moved my Roku 2 Stand alone to the first TV. Now everyone is happy. I do notice that the Roku Stick is slower than the Roku 2 and Roku 3.

    It's a roku. Much faster than my old original roku. The point anywhere remote is probably the best feature. I was hoping to run the power off of my TV's USB port. However, the TV shuts off the USB power whenever the TV is turned off. That means the roku also turns off and takes a minute to restart next time I turn the TV on. And when I'm rewdy to watch some netflix I can't stand the wait! So we ended up just plugging the roku into the power outlet. A little disappointed with that but that's not necessarily the roku's fault.

    I recently bought the roku stick and I am really enjoying the benefits. I don't have cable or satellite but do have wifi which is necessary for the roku to work. I can now see movies on a bigger screen with Netflix than my laptop! I am enjoying. I also use Pandora and you tube. The other ones such as Vudu etc. I don't use since I don't have accounts with them and also means I need to pay for those besides the Netflix I already pay for. Quality is good and I have had nothing but good times. Set up is easy, you do need to have HDMI function on your TV. Was really worth the $34 I paid for and I recommend it.

    reduces "cord cutting anxiety", remote problems

    I decided to get rid of the monthly satellite/cable bill and cut the cord. Rather than going cold turkey I purchased this product. I use it almost daily for things I couldn't have done with cable. The biggest drawback is the remote control just stops working randomly and I have to pull the batteries out and re-insert them. I would recommend getting a smart blue-ray player that has this functionality built in and can also play discs.
